I have no personal experience but I imagine, perhaps naively, that the "right way" to do that these days would be to use PyObjC and py2app to create a Cocoa application and then build upon Cocoa's built-in support for Apple events. Presumably that would include supplying an sdef and modifying the app bundle's Info.plist to enable scripting as outlined here: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ScriptableCocoa Applications/SApps_implement/SAppsImplement.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/2000 0037-BAJBBDFE -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
